Speed Dating For Dog Lovers Comes To Providence

Speed dating can be a nerve-wracking experience, so why not bring your dog along for moral support?

Why should humans get to have all the fun when it comes to speed dating? The Animal Print Magazine's thoughts, exactly. The magazine will allow man's best friend to get in on the action when Speed Dating: Doggie Style comes to Providence on Sunday, July 28th. The event will take place at India Restaurant on Hope St. Participants will be able to sit down to socialize in six-minute intervals with other singles and their dogs in hopes of finding a romantic connection, make new friends, or maybe find dog-walking partners.

The first speed dating event of its kind in Lil' Rhody, participants and their pooches will meet in the beautiful outdoor seating area of India Restaurant on Hope Street to enjoy a complimentary cocktail and treats for both humans and canines.

Participants must be at least 21-years-old to attend, and their dogs need to be current on Rabies Vaccination, DHLPP, and Bordetella (Kennel Cough). They must also be non-agressive to humans and other canines (in other words, play nice!).

Space is limited for this event, so make sure to sign up ASAP. Tickets are $20, available at www.theanimalprint.com. A portion of the price will be donated to Hands That Heal RI, a non-profit volunteer organization that helps low income pet owners in RI who need assistance with healthcare for their pets.
